RE-ENERGISING THE BUS ECOSYSTEM

After a compulsory leave of a little over two months, the bus industry in India has begun to shift gears. It is doing so amid numerous difficulties, the most acute being the need for working capital and a reduction in occupancy rate due to the need for social distancing. A recent webinar organised by Busworld India highlighted these challenges and got experts to discuss ways to reenergise the bus ecosystem. Moderated by Kulwant Singh, Advisor, Busworld Academy, the webinar, drawing the attendance of over 500 people, got experts to look at ways to get the bus industry to find its animal spirit once again. Expressed C.R.C. Mohanty, Environment Programme Coordinator at the United Nations Centre for Regional Development (UNCRD), that public transport should be resumed as early as possible. “This would increase connectivity, which is important to ensure that labourers, farmers and many others find their means of livelihood once again,” he mentioned. Stating that buses are a key contributor for sustenance, Mohanty said that they have been providing accessibility and connectivity, which is key to development.
